Nobody crucified Tebow. Hes not on the field for the exact same reason Sams not. Neither can play well enough.
WOW!
I didn’t realize Michael Sam:
1. Won the Heisman Trophy.
2. Led his college team to their 2nd National Championship in 3 years.
3. Held the SEC’s all-time records in both career passing efficiency and total rushing touchdowns.
4. Selected in the first round of the draft.
5. Took a 1-4 team to win the AFC and a playoff game against the Steelers.
Sam only wishes!
Most Heisman winners fail in the NFL.
Many college champions fail in the NFL.
Many college record holders fail in the NFL.
Many first round draft picks fail in the NFL.
Some bad QBs teamed up with excellent defenses succeed in spite of themselves in the NFL. One just won the SB with a pathetic performance from the QB and a (well actually about 16) great performance(s) from the defense. It’s a 53 man roster, QBs don’t win alone and Tebow-cultists insistence on giving him all the credit for the wins and studiously ignoring his complete inability to complete passes is sad.
Danny Wuerffel was the original Tebow. Heisman Trophy Winner, National Champion and Great Christian, and his NFL career lasted about as long as Tebow’s.
